NO MORE HD we need to make movies blurrier.
like we really hate to hear this - but power is in every human relationship. unless you are the exact same as your partner in age, class, race, ethnicity, religion, language, nationality, citizenship status, gender, sexual orientation, physical and mental ability, salary, education, etc, you have to negotiate the problems material power differentials pose to love, to treating others well. the response to this seems to have been to make certain points of difference - like age - load-bearing, in a way that erases others - class would be my example: far bigger a power disparity than, say, a ten year gap in age between adults is class and inheritable wealth, but you almost never see that acknowledged in the same way. and even if you were at parity in all those areas (gay twincest sweep??) there is still the emotional power that someone’s love and desire for you gives you over them. you can’t get rid of it. you cannot find the perfect relationship where it doesn’t exist by steadily winnowing down your “ethical” options via widening designations of “problematic relationships.” you have to confront the power you have over other people and think how you will wield it most lightly. sorry!
every successful or even pleasant social interaction feels like a battle won to me. which is fucked up, but that's where we're at.
but i am glad i made a way to have a few more - and regular - opportunities to even have offline social interactions..!
why don't you fire walk with some bitches
"You can't consume problematic media!"
Maybe YOU can't. I, on the other hand, have critical thinking skills and a lot of spite

remembering that time there were people on here genuinely trying to to get people to stop shorting “polyamorous” and “nonbinary” to “poly” and “NB” because those are sometimes short for “polynesian” and “non-black” and apparently its illegal for abbreviations to mean multiple things
